Mortified News: Some people are so
constituted that they are inclined to
throw cold water an every enterprise
that is suggested for the benefit of a
town. And then they join the grand
army Of croakels, and complain that
there is no growth in the town. Let
them cease to be croakers. and aid ev-
cry worthy enterprise and see what
effect it will have.
The house of Chas. Leaman, in the
town Of Scott, was struck by light
ming last Monday night. The electric
fluid entered the stovepipe, passed
down that to the stove, throwing the
fire into the room, and then passed
out through the floor. The shock
put out two lamps that were in the
room, and considerably shook up the
occupants, but did no further damage.
It was lucky escape.
The first genuine thunder storm of
the season visited this region last
Sunday. There was sharp tightening,
high wind and heavy rain, but we do
not hear Of any damage being done.
This was followed by another similar
storm on Monday evening. but with
little rain, and it has rained every
evening since. The spring time has
come, and the time of sslicoons'' is
approaching. How is your"dug -out?"

dorsements for the position; to all of

Mortified News: II the manu-.
scripts Of speeches. sermons, law argu.
ments, scientific or professional pa.
pers, were printed as they come to the
printers hand, seven in ten of great
regulations would be wrecked, the
educators of the land, the very teach.
ers of the grammar schools, not ex-
ceptep. There is something in the
process Of the handling of types, Of
reading copy,or correcting proofs
that begets an aptitude that no other
instruction can. The mind is trained
that it detects errors in style
expression, and rhythm in com
position. as the trained ear discover
discord in music. The printer is
after all, the real protector Of liter
